Low Country Shrimp And Grits

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I made this recipe after reading a number of shrimp & grits recipes, and not finding one that incorporated all the flavors I wanted, made my own. It turned out quite nicely, so I'm sharing. The sauce is light in terms of volume, rather than being like a soup, and has a lot of different flavors packed into it.

    Low Country Shrimp and Grits, I made this recipe after reading a number of shrimp & grits recipes, and not finding one that incorporated all the flavors I wanted, made my own It turned out quite nicely, so I’m sharing The sauce is light in terms of volume, rather than being like a soup, and has a lot of different flavors packed into it , Used canned San Marzano tomatoes (2 or 3 with some of the sauce in the can), folded a little Gouda into the grits at the end, one shallot ‘toe’ instead of onion or green onion Nice!!
